The Marne, 1914 - Holger Herwig

The First Battle of the Marne was the battle that halted the advance of the German Army across northern France in the fall of 1914. With the advance halted the German and Allied armies dug in to hold their ground, thus setting the stage for the bloody stalemate that would exist for the near entirety of World War I on the Western Front. Dr. Holger Herwig, professor and Canada Research Chair in Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary, discusses the development of, the key individuals involved, and the attitudes surrounding the battle he argues to be the most decisive land battle since Waterloo. Recorded November 10, 2013 in J.C. Nichols Auditorium at the National World War I Museum at Liberty Memorial.
